Gordon Crozier
PhD
Gordon Crozier PhD
Dr. Crozier, a renowned leader in integrative medicine and genetics-based healthcare, graduated with a Doctorate of Osteopathy from Des Moines University & College of Osteopathic Medicine and Surgery in 1994. Following his internship and residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Michigan State University Garden City Hospital Campus, he specialized in hormone replacement and women’s health. Board-certified in Florida, Dr. Crozier serves as the Medical Director of Crozier Clinic in Orlando, practicing medicine there.
Leveraging both his personal experiences and formal education, Dr. Crozier aids patients worldwide. Beyond his Orlando private practice, he consults remotely and conducts global lectures on the transformative potential of natural treatments, genetics-based medicine, and integrative healthcare.
Dr. Crozier takes integrative medicine a step farther by using genetic testing to develop a unique treatment plan for every one of his patients. Genetic testing allows Dr. Crozier to get to the root of illness and disease by examining his patients on a cellular level. Instead of using a cookie-cutter approach to treatment, he allows your genes to tell him exactly what your body needs to heal. Dr. Crozier then uses that information to recommend a combination of IV therapies, supplements, nutrition, and other natural therapies. Dr. Crozier has successfully treated a wide array of conditions and diseases, including chronic fatigue, tick-borne disease, parasitic infection, and mold (and other) toxicity. He has also been enormously successful in reducing the symptoms of autism and ADD/ADHD in children.
His underlying philosophy is to “optimize the body”.
Dr. Crozier is recognized as a leader in both the research and application of integrative medicine and a pioneer in the field of genetics-based medicine. After graduating from Des Moines University & College of Osteopathic Medicine and Surgery in 1994 with a Doctorate of Osteopathy, he completed his internship and residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Michigan State University Garden City Hospital Campus. Dr. Crozier went on from there to practice in the areas of hormone replacement and women’s health. A board-certified physician in the state of Florida, Dr. Crozier is the Medical Director of Crozier Clinic in Orlando, where he is also a practicing physician.Dr. Crozier combines his own life experience with his formal education to help patients from around the world.

This course teaches participants to treat the body locally, segmentally, and systemically; we do not divide the body up into upper and lower halves requiring you to take 2 courses before being able to need the entire body. Our system is built on the foundation of Neurological Dry Needling that focuses on peri-neural and perivascular needling to normalize inflammation ( neurogenic ), microcirculation, and reduce soft tissue guarding. Our peripheral nerve mapping model is a logical and systemic process that elevates the clinical application of dry needling by needling more than just muscles. Various needling techniques are practiced including the use of electrical nerve stimulation to provide participants with a variety of safe and effective treatment options.
Learning Objectives
- Correctly identify and apply proper precautions related to blood borne pathogens related to the clinical practice of dry needling therapy from the course pre-reading.
- Independently identify and apply dry needling to each of the three types of trigger points (homeostatic, paravertebral and symptomatic) in a given case study.
- Integrate the physiological mechanisms of needling when developing a treatment plan for a given musculoskeletal condition.
- Discuss the prevention and management of adverse responses to dry needling based on OSHA requirements with 100% accuracy during case study.
- Independently apply dry needling treatment safely into musculoskeletal neurotrigger points during lab sessions.
- Independently evaluate and treat soft tissue and neurogenic dysfunctions relating to a given neuromusculoskeletal condition
- Correctly defend the IDN system for treatment of musculoskeletal pain based on the unique neurology and physiology of neuro-trigger points.
- Independently integrate the IDN system into the participant’s Chiropractic practice in relation to current clinical guidelines.

Regional Event:Start Date: 06/14/2025 8:00 amEnd Date: 06/14/2025 6:00 pmLocation: Oceanside 1 & 2Neurological Dry Needling for Pain Management & Sports Rehabilitation (Foundation course) (3-day) develops the knowledge and clinical skills required to effectively assess and dry needle painful neuromuscular conditions. This course teaches participants to treat the body locally, segmentally, and systemically; we do not divide the body up into upper and lower halves requiring you to take 2 courses before being able to need the entire body. Our system is built on the foundation of Neurological Dry Needling that focuses on peri-neural and perivascular needling to normalize inflammation ( neurogenic ), microcirculation, and reduce soft tissue guarding. Our peripheral nerve mapping model is a logical and systemic process that elevates the clinical application of dry needling by needling more than just muscles. Various needling techniques are practiced including the use of electrical nerve stimulation to provide participants with a variety of safe and effective treatment options.
Learning Objectives
- Correctly identify and apply proper precautions related to blood borne pathogens related to the clinical practice of dry needling therapy from the course pre-reading.
- Independently identify and apply dry needling to each of the three types of trigger points (homeostatic, paravertebral and symptomatic) in a given case study.
- Integrate the physiological mechanisms of needling when developing a treatment plan for a given musculoskeletal condition.
- Discuss the prevention and management of adverse responses to dry needling based on OSHA requirements with 100% accuracy during case study.
- Independently apply dry needling treatment safely into musculoskeletal neurotrigger points during lab sessions.
- Independently evaluate and treat soft tissue and neurogenic dysfunctions relating to a given neuromusculoskeletal condition
- Correctly defend the IDN system for treatment of musculoskeletal pain based on the unique neurology and physiology of neuro-trigger points.
- Independently integrate the IDN system into the participant’s Chiropractic practice in relation to current clinical guidelines.

Coordination of Nutritional Recommendations Utilizing Blood Chemistry and Genetic Testing
Regional Event:Start Date: 06/13/2025 1:00 pmEnd Date: 06/13/2025 2:40 pmLocation: Rio Vista 1-2This two-hour program will cover the basics in genetic testing and how to determine what the patient needs in order to prevent the disease process based on their genetic predisposition. Evaluating blood work can help support those recommendations and will help determine where the patient is in relationship to being preventative or reactive depending on where they are on their path of health. Being able to coordinate care between the testing can increase success rates in treatment and prevention. Genetic markers can also help dictate the type of exercise and diet patterns that will be most beneficial for your patients. Ever have the one who “eats right and exercises all the time” and can’t lose weight? This is an example of how genetic testing can alter their path and your treatment protocol. Case studies demonstrating this work in clinical practice will be shared.
Learning Objectives
- The doctor will gain a basic knowledge of genetic testing related to disease, diet, and exercise.
- The doctor will be able to coordinate basic blood chemistry and genetic testing to create appropriate nutritional or supplemental recommendations.
- The doctor will understand how to utilize genetic testing in practice in a simple easy to implement manner.
